You know, the thought that they might not never even occurred to me.

Hero Fed-Ex driver rescues burning flags from protesters
Company weighs in on whether feisty worker stays on payroll

For a lot of people, FedEx driver Matt Uhrin may just be America’s hero of the day.

When a group of anti-American protesters picked the sidewalk in front of the downtown Iowa City, Iowa, branch of Bank of America to burn several U.S. flags Thursday, they couldn’t have known Uhrin would be making a delivery at the same time.

According to protester Jordan Adams, of Iowa City, the group picked the Wells Fargo location at Ped Mall because of the bank’s support for the Dakota Access Pipeline. Donald Trump’s election and racial, ethnic and gender inequality were also on the protest agenda.

“I’m here because of my belief that everything that Trump is doing is horrible,” Adams told Little Village Magazine. “It’s threatening to black people, Hispanic, LGBTQ, women and to the protesters of the Dakota Access Pipeline.”

At one time, we all would have expected the company to back its employee.  But this country has gone far downhill from when I was a youngster.

I'd like to think that the tide is turning and this incessant political correctness will eventually go away.  We all need to return to God, stand up for this great country and stop catering to a minority of malcontents. If you don't like the US, just go elsewhere and leave the symbol our freedom alone.
